Hi last tank and this will of gone to pot. First tank fuel pipe split and pumped gallons of fuel into engine compartment :-(. Second tank exhaust decided to blow a 1-2" hole in the first silencer. Noise and drone made it very tiring to drive. Bodge up temp repair with coke can and jubilee clips until it can be replaced. With blizzards and 4" snow forcast daily for next week might put off replacement. Might even upgrade exhaust with straight through silencers to see if it bumps up mpg. Engine under tray and front spoiler replaced. Volvo have flattern alot of the underside but rear valance is like a parachute so will concenrate on this.
